An .htaccess file is a text file that incorporates directives that tell a server how to operate in particular events. It needs to be put in the folder where these directives should be executed. Loads of script-driven apps use this kind of a file to perform properly - WordPress and Joomla™, for instance. You can use such a file with custom content as well and do quite a lot of things - block an IP address, an entire network or certain Internet sites from accessing your site, set personalized error pages that will show up rather than server-generated ones if a visitor encounters some error on the website, direct a domain or a subdomain to a new web address, create a password-protected area and much more. With an .htaccess file, you'll have significantly better control over your presence online.
